The President of Ecuador, Daniel Noboa, expressed his appreciation for Mexico, even though the Mexican government doesn't have the same regard for him.
These statements arise amid the diplomatic crisis between Mexico and Ecuador. The crisis was triggered by the entry of Ecuadorian police into the Mexican embassy in Quito to arrest the former Vice President Jorge Glas.
"I personally love Mexico, but it seems I'm not liked by the Mexican government": Noboa commented in a conversation with Mexican speaker Daniel Habif.

In that talk, the First Lady Lavinia Valbonesi, a renowned nutritionist and influencer, also participated. The president hinted at the possibility of improving relations between both nations in the future, although without giving more details about it.
The tense situation between both countries
Noboa highlighted his affection for Mexico, describing it as an extraordinary country where he has several friends, including university classmates with whom he still keeps in touch.
However, the diplomatic situation remains tense with both countries facing each other in the International Court of Justice in The Hague. Both face mutual accusations of violations of international agreements.

Ecuador points out that Mexico didn't respect the diplomatic asylum regulations in the case of Glas. Meanwhile, Mexico accuses Ecuador of violating the inviolability of its diplomatic premises with the police incursion on April 5, 2024.
That day, the government of Andrés Manuel López Obrador had granted political asylum to Glas, considering him a political persecuted. However, a few hours later, Ecuadorian authorities forcibly entered the embassy and arrested him.
Currently, Glas is serving an eight-year prison sentence for corruption offenses.Glas, a protégé of AMLO, faces a new thirteen-year sentence for alleged embezzlement of public funds in the post-earthquake reconstruction of 2016.
